So, if each one of the 6,000 National

1/8th of the 168 hours in a week), that would provide one soldier per 2.6
miles of border.

The lack of accountability and integrity in the mainstream press is

The genetic science is progressing so fast that we'll know soon enough—perhaps
two decades to be rock solid certain. We know which way the scientific
wind is blowing right now, but even if we ignore that, wouldn't the
prudent action be to wait a couple of decades, to restrict immigration and
refrain from utopian foreign adventures, until the science is in?

Danes and Muslims don't agree on the basics of social organization and

What the DNA researchers are uncovering as they scrape away the blather of

TIM Harford
evidently hopes his new book "The Undercover Economist" joins
the apostolic succession of 2005's pop social science bestsellers that
began with Malcolm Gladwell's "Blink." Just as the hugely
popular "Freakonomics" by economist Steven D. Levitt and
journalist Stephen J. Dubner flaunted a front-cover blurb from Gladwell,
"The Undercover Economist" splashes Levitt's "Required

Last summer, when Alberto Gonzales's name was first floated as replacement
for Sandra Day O'Connor, Bush lashed out at conservatives for their tepid
response. Sounding like a cross between Don Corleone and the narrator of Green
Eggs and Ham, the president bristled, "I don’t like it when a
friend gets criticized. I'm loyal to my friends. And all of a sudden this
fellow, who is a good public servant and a really fine person, is under
fire. And so, do I like it? No, I don't like it at all."

Wade decision, by outmoding shotgun weddings, adoption, and respect for life, instead make more murderous the early ’90s crack wars fought by the first generation of youths to survive legalized abortion?

It’s supposed to be an attack on my

applied little jolts of juice to help them remember the movie better. Even
without such stimulation, “The Battle of Algiers” is hard to forget

The French have traditionally tried to do
with their immigrants almost exactly what the neocons recommend here:
cultural assimilation, education in civics theories, monolingualism,
meritocracy, separation of church and state, and all the rest. This may
seem ironic, because nobody in Tikrit hates anybody worse than the neocons
hate the French. But that's the way it usually turns out with ideologues:
it's their nature to burn at the stake those heretics who deviate the most
minutely.

conditions are so desperate that partition probably won't work either.

The

The
Republican Party's venerable Southern Strategy was publicly tarred and
feathered as racist and obsolete by all the most “Righteous Right”
Beltway “conservatives” back during the Trent Lott brouhaha. But it
remains the electoral strategy that actually, you know, wins elections for
the GOP.

into a referendum on the wonderfulness of illegal immigration ... and

Since conquering Iraq, the Bush

disturbingly reminiscent of the Carter years. Rather than declaring
martial law and immediately demonstrating to Iraqis who is in charge, the
White House adopted a hands-off, laissez-faire policy. This seems based on
the assumption that Iraq's looting louts, clamorous clansmen, mad mullahs,
and café conspirators were as ready for self-government as would be, say,
American Republicans. Conversely, under Rove, the Bush Administration has
treated American Republicans as if they were a treacherous conquered tribe

But
if race is scientifically meaningful, does that argue against the RPI? I
think the opposite is truer. To me, the RPI is appealing precisely because
racial groups are fundamentally an outgrowth of that locus of primal human
emotions, the family. That means race is and always will be a hot potato.
Government should handle it as little as possible. Government should
especially avoid throwing fuel on the potato by designating some groups as
the beneficiaries and others as the victims of affirmative action.

Perhaps Michael Barone has a Machiavellian plan in mind to use heavy

polarization along race lines. It may be inevitable, but shouldn't we try
to explore ways as a nation to head this off? Democrats want the GOP to
commit suicide chasing the chimera of conservative-voting minorities. As I

effort had a good shot at picking up were Arabs and Muslims (by easing
anti-terrorist rules). That ploy has proved a mistake.

the number of black students by guaranteeing college admission to any kid
finishing in the top 20% of his high school class. What Jeb forgot was
that black elites are not comprised of average blacks. Black leaders
mostly send their kids to integrated schools, where their scions find it
hard to rank in the top fifth. However, black leaders' kids tend to
outscore the poor black kids on the SAT, so One Florida would tend to make

| "By providing a safety valve
that drains off Mexico's most desperate young brown men, our lax borders
have allowed Mexico's most avaricious old white men to loot their nation with
impunity. In the U.S., this mestizo influx generates ever greater quotas
and set-asides designed to propel their climb in American society. In
contrast, in Mexico all the best jobs in government, industry, and
academia are becoming ever more segregated. |

First Can the Melting Pot Be Revived?

| Ron
Unz advocates mass immigration and old-fashioned assimilation
policies. Can this circle be squared? The professional politicians don't
think so: they're choosing appeasement over assimilation. |

A Better Way in
Kosovo?

|
| "A year ago, NATO
attacked Yugoslavia. It's worth recalling President Bill Clinton's
explanation of Why We Fought: "The principle we and our allies have
been fighting for in the Balkans is the principle of multiethnic,
tolerant, inclusive democracy." Well ... happy anniversary,
Kosovo! What could the West have done instead? The answer,
shockingly enough, is to have sponsored and made humane the inevitable ethnic cleansing." |

people who are part white and part minority check two (or more) boxes.
But then the government will simply ignore the white box." |

Bilingual Education - Bipartisan Blunder

|

|
| "Bilingual education is a fraud
perpetrated against Hispanic youngsters. Its secret goal is to delay the
immigrant student's switchover to English until he's past puberty, when
the mind's language-learning faculty grows rigid, and the hope of ever
losing a foreign accent fades." |

John McCain - Licensed to Hate

|

|
| "John McCain's appeal stems in large part from the fact that nature and cruel nurture have fashioned him into the Senate's finest hater.
This kind of man can be hugely useful. If, say, extra-terrestrials bearing
To Serve Man cookbooks were invading, there is no one better suited to lead us Earthlings in a war of racial
extermination against the space gooks. In these less-desperate times, though, most of his longtime colleagues in the Senate seem to dread the idea of such a
man of wrath becoming President." |

Immigration vs.
Environmentalism

|
| "Only
7% of the Sierra Club's 550,000 members are minorities of any kind,
compared to about 28% of the entire population. As a predominantly blue
collar group, immigrants from Latin America indulge in the traditional
working class disdain for hoity-toity upper middle class
environmentalists. During an economic downturn, Hispanic blue collar
voters are likely to favor relaxing California's stringent restrictions on
factories, construction, and landscaping." |

Immigration vs.
African Americans

|
2/19/00
|
| "Serious
discussions of immigration reform have been off the table for years in
America precisely because the current immigration policies provide
America's verbalist elite with a new, improved servant class at no cost to
themselves in terms of greater competition. Mexican immigrants are not taking jobs away from American
lawyers, media people, politicians, and corporate bosses. Instead, small, brown, diligent, and submissive
immigrants have displaced large, black, unmotivated, and surly native-born
Americans as our service workers of choice." |

Types of Right

|
| "5. Evolutionary Conservatives. This is an almost
wholly intellectual group (e.g., Steve Sailer, John McGinnis, Charles
Murray)— not a politician brave enough to stand with them — who
have realized two things: first, that lessons of the new science of evolutionary
psychology are largely conservative ones about an adamantine human nature,
the natural basis of sex roles, and so on; second, that the knowledge gained
from the Human Genome Project and the rise of genetic engineering will throw
up some fascinating and contentious political issues in the increasingly
near future." |
